Los Angeles Sparks guard Kelsey Plum leaves an open practice with an apparent leg injury, according to reports from multiple outlets. Newsweek describes the injury as an ankle sprain that occurs during practice, noting Plum was playing at a high level beforehand. The Athletic (via the New York Times) reports that Plum is helped off the court during the Sparks’ open practice after the injury appears to involve her leg. The reports also frame Plum as a relatively durable player in recent seasons: The Athletic notes she has missed only four games from 2022 to 2026, suggesting the injury could be a notable change for the Sparks. While the outlets agree that the injury happens during practice and that Plum does not complete the session, they do not provide consistent details beyond that at the time of reporting. The immediate status for Plum’s availability is presented as uncertain, with Newsweek specifically indicating she will miss time due to the ankle sprain.
